    Spurs in for Llorente

    Scored 15 goals last season in a struggling PL side. Why not have him as back up? You're never going to get an outstanding young striker to play second fiddle to Kane unless you pay them a ruinous salary. Which we won't, so...

    A wise piece about pace

    A lot of truth here but a fully fit Son does cause teams loads of problems. One more out and out pace merchant is all we need on that front.

    Alli: Tottenham are just 'inches away' from winning Premier League

    And I'm inches away from being a porn star...

    Poch: Tottenham must spend to be in the title shake-up

    And people can have their view on the Kyle Walker situation but I doubt it was a huge surprise to the players given his lack of games at the back end of last season. Games which we did rather well in if I recall...

    Poch: Tottenham must spend to be in the title shake-up

    There is a great deal of journo license in his interpretation of what MoPo said. "Big" players won't come to sit on our bench unless we pay them a fortune. And we're not going to do that, rightly so, because what message does that send out to our excellent academy and the rest of the team? I'm...

    Spurs tipped to sign Sessegnon ‘Liverpool end interest’

    The kid played a few games at left back but so did Bale. Trust me, in two years time he won't be a left back. Well worth buying.

    Why Mauricio Pochettino decided to spend £30m on Moussa Sissoko

    He obviously is unaware we also have Son...who is very very quick. The Independent these days is mostly work experience kids battering out approximations of stories so I'm not surprised that passed him by.

    Tottenham are risking all their progress with apathy In the transfer market

    It'd be nice to have genuine cover for Dembele but apart from that we really don't need to tinker. Making loads of expensive signings can either be read as a statement of intent or an expensive panic attack. We bought the two main players we needed early in the window.

    Alli: We will not crack under the pressure

    I'm sure there's a more apt place to post this (excuse my laziness) but I reckon we can only afford to lose 1 and draw 2 from here on out. And that's hoping Leicester lose 4 games (or some permutation that sees them only getting 12 more points). Who'd have thought the run in would get me...

    Borussia Dortmund 3-0 Spurs : match report

    Comfortably the best team we've played all season. Irrespective of the team we put out I'm shocked by the gulf in class. Hat's off to them.

    Spurs 2-2 Arsenal - Mauricio's verdict

    I'm torn on this one. I don't think Poch got a whole lot wrong but was outmanaged by Wenger in game particularly when Arse went down to 10. He made brave attacking substitutions, treating it like a must win cup tie. We weren't clever enough in the face of that to make our numerical advantage...

    Spurs 3-0 Fiorentina : player ratings

    It's the same here. You wouldn't have thought we'd played last night, let alone convincingly beat one of the best teams in Italy 3-0. I had to really search for the match report on the Telegraph online.

    Pochettino intent on leaving a lasting legacy at White Hart Lane

    And we need to be loyal to Poch when things aren't as rosy as they are now. Fans and boardroom alike. He is clearly the man for the present and the man for the long haul.

    Tottenham thrash West Ham : BBC Match Report

    I said to my mate at half-time, we all know what comes next. They get one back and we have an incredibly nervy half hour or so. How wrong could I be. First time I've been relaxed at a Spurs game since we banged the fifth in against Wigan...

    Tottenham in talks to sign Heung-Min Son from Bayer

    And I saw stats that suggested Lamela was better than Willian last season. Stats are fine but I prefer to use my eyes. Based on what I've seen Lamela is nowhere near penetrating or clever enough to cut it in the PL. And he really just wasn't as useful as Willian. Who would you rather come on as...

    Bolasie not a Tottenham target

    Sigh. I don't even know what to think anymore.

    Tottenham risk missing out on top 4 finish due to late transfer dealings

    Nothing radical being said here but Tom Collomosse isn't a Spurs fan so I don't expect him to cut us any slack in his reporting. I think that he gets frustrated by the lack of access he has to players and staff, hence articles like this. We run a tight ship these days when it comes to reporting...

    Juventus make move for Tottenham Hotspur star

    I would love the guy to do well but I've seen little evidence of a footballing brain. Some nice flicks and he occasionally opens his box of tricks but he seems to have little reading of the game.

    Wilshere fined £40,000 over FA Cup chants

    Who cares. Nothing wrong with passion. It's what makes it a genuine rivalry, not some manufactured Sky product.

    Hugo Lloris not leaving Tottenham - Pochettino

    Just means he won't be losing his loyalty bonus by handing in a transfer request or publicly angling for a move. And means as a result we can get more for him. (cynical, me?)
